Memphis Looks For 10th Win In Regular Season Finale
The Memphis Tigers will not be playing for the AAC championship. But they have had a great season so far, going 9-2. The Tigers have won two straight games coming into this matchup with Tulane, scoring 53 points in their last game against UAB. But it isn’t the offense of Memphis that will be the question mark in this game, as the defense of the Tigers has been vulnerable to giving up big numbers to their opponents this season, something we could see against a very good Tulane team.
Can Tulane Avoid Looking Ahead to AAC Title Game?
This is a very interesting spot for the Tulane Green Wave. The Green Wave are 9-2 and have clinched a spot in the AAC title game by going 7-0 in conference play. For Tulane, the question going into this game will be what their level of focus looks like, as they have nothing to gain or lose from this contest outside of their spot in the rankings. Their next game against Army for the AAC title will determine the fate of their season no matter how this contest plays out, which could be significant.
Memphis vs Tulane Prediction
While we expect Tulane to win this contest at home, we are going to take the points with their visitors in this Memphis vs Tulane matchup. The Green Wave won’t be completely ignoring this game while prepping for Army, but we aren’t going to see the absolute best from Tulane either. That and the explosive offense of Memphis will help this game stay inside of two possessions.
